perennial rb1 of him he he slots into me as like rb2 territory for his career and i know that feels like a i mean it is it's a statement of his entire career but it's like he something about him just seems okay yeah i his advanced analytics on the season they're just they're not great and i think that i think daubbins is back oh daubbins is definitely yeah did you see his quote yes i'm a bronco yeah they're thinking two three year deal Yeah, I mean, he is going to be, this will be a one-two punch next year. And this will probably be one of the ones where it's like, hey, here we have the time share. RJ Harvey is being drafted in front of J.K. Dobbins. I'm probably going to take that J.K. Dobbins dip because people will be out. Yeah, and I think Harvey. Because they want to be in on Harvey. I think Harvey's a good pass catcher. Yeah. I think he's going to have that role of the Gainwell role or the Swift, you know, inconsistency.

Here's some Harvey numbers for those already yelling at the podcast. Among 55 qualified running backs with 80 plus rush attempts. Go ahead. 51st in percentage of runs stuffed at the line. 52nd in percentage of runs of 10 plus yards. 49th in rush success rate, 48th in yards after contact per attempt. That's what I saw. I saw a guy pretty darn capable in the passing game. but not a consistent runner. Occasionally a really good runner, but not a consistent runner. Seahawks running backs are 22, 23 on the season. Walker had five more fantasy points on the season than Charbonnet did. Consistency is even worse, 23 and 29. Walker at 29 inconsistency. That felt right. Walker had five more points with seven fewer touchdowns. Yeah, I mean,

You can't really argue with them when they're in the Super Bowl. Nope. Nope. This is Remandre in Trevion to a degree. But you also can't argue that Zach Charbonnet is healthy. He has a torn ACL. I mean, they can't do it anymore. And what we've seen is Kenneth Walker taking over and being dominant. This is a situation where I am fascinated to see. I feel like the Seahawks have to bring Walker back now. They just have to. and they're going to have to actually give him the ball, make him the dude to start next season. I think he'll be extremely valuable for fantasy. I wonder how much money he's going to want, because obviously, depending on that, they could have the choice of bringing in an ETN to fill that role. They could, you know what I mean? Like if Walker, because of his age, is more expensive on the open market, and you've got those other five names I just mentioned, I just wouldn't be shocked if this general manager doesn't.

look at that aspect of it. Oh, he'll, he'll definitely. The thing is, is when you win a Super Bowl, like you always make the right move afterwards. You always just pay afterwards. You're the guys that got you there. The Joe Flacco, you know, won the Super Bowl and it's just like, we got to keep it together. We got to pay these guys. I feel like sometimes you make mistakes when you win. And if so, if they win, I fully expect them to give him a ton of money. and bring him back. I mean, if you're Walker, just think about being a human being. You just, if you went on a playoff run, you're getting all the work, so you're really happy about that. You're having success. And if you win a Super Bowl with that team, you're going to want to resign with that team. But Kenneth Walker, go get that shmoney. Oh, he will do that first. Go get the money first. And if the money comes from Seattle, maybe that's where he's at. On Thursday, we'll talk about the truth of the wide receiver position. So we'll dig in there.

And I think I get shamed on Thursday, too. Is that right, Al? We're still, we've got to figure it out. That is correct. What do you mean you got to figure it out? Well, there's no game this week. No, there's no game. But I mean, if anybody, if anybody gets shamed, it's me. Yeah. Thanks, Jared. That's true. That's true. Thanks, Jared. You have no one to blame but yourself. That was a real Jason move, huh? Yes, it was. A real Tommy Trimble move. Hey, I took a stidum. It was a real Colquette move. Which one? More than half an interception. It worked. I thought he could get up over one. I thought it was a shoeing. Did he only throw the one? Yeah. Like the real egregious one? Yeah. The one at the very end? Yeah. Yeah. No, I thought he could get over 174 combined rushing and passing, and I was a fool. All right, we got to go. This show is over.
